• Assist in wrapping up the 2025 event season, including data cleanup, archiving, and compliance processes
• Help prepare and structure Airtable systems for the 2026 event season, creating repeatable and scalable workflows
• Maintain clear documentation of systems, processes, and workflows for internal teams

Qualifications

• Advanced, hands-on experience with Airtable, including building and maintaining bases, automations, formulas, and interfaces
• Strong experience in data management and organization, with the ability to work across large, complex datasets
• Proven ability to troubleshoot technical issues and optimize system performance in real time
• Experience cloning, modifying, and scaling Airtable bases across multiple use cases
• Project management experience in fast-paced, execution-heavy environments, ideally supporting events or large-scale operations
• High level of ownership, urgency, and adaptability with the ability to ramp quickly and contribute immediately
• Strong communication and collaboration skills when working with cross-functional teams

What Sets This Role Apart

• Immediate impact role with high visibility across a major event portfolio
